This year’s theme is –UNIFIED!– and we would like to see a colourful and flamboyant celebration, at the 28th Pride Week in Toronto. UNIFIED! speaks to the spirit of celebration and unity shared by Toronto's LGBTTIQQ2S communities during Pride, and our solidarity with queer communities throughout the world hosting their own Pride celebrations.

All parade participants are expected to use the theme in their entries in an entertaining and fun way. This can be achieved through elaborate costumes, colourful floats or props, entertaining music and other creative ideas!

Please identify what plans you or your organization have to express this year’s theme, using wildly creative ideas and entertaining elements.
